Upcoming Personal Finance Events In Singapore You Should Attend In December 2024

Upgrade your personal finances before the end of the year.


The personal finance landscape has become more complex than ever in 2024 – and heading into 2025. Simmering economic uncertainties threaten to boil over, the jobs market in Singapore is weakening, interest rates cuts only mean the economy is on a slowdown, persisting inflationary pressures continue, and market volatility remain.

At the same time, the cost of living in Singapore has increased, and property prices show no signs of cooling off, reshaping how individuals approach their personal financial planning.

The rapidly evolving macro-economic environment underscores the importance of financial literacy, and equipping yourself with fundamental knowledge about investing and managing your personal finances. 

Whether you just entering the jobs market or more experienced individual, or a new or seasoned investor, personal finance events are a good platform to meet experts from the industry and listen to insights that they have to share to help guide you to better personal wealth management.

With the premise set, we have curated a list of upcoming personal finance events in December 2024.
